"Innocent until proven guilty" has zero to do with it. The American People have "at will" hiring.
The American people can keep Kavanaugh off the court by the simple standard any employer uses for any job. If they don't like his haircut, he can be kept off the court. If they think he likely committed sexual assault and likely lied about it, they can toss him without a second thought. No evidence beyond a reasonable doubt necessary. He serves or doesn't serve at the pleasure of the people. The rules are employer/employee, not state/defendant.
Kavanaugh is trying to sell himself to us as an employee. He is not being charged with a crime or prosecuted. He has rights if that were the case. He has no right to a Supreme Court seat.
Republicans, as usual, want to twist this into the American people having to in some way prove Kavanaugh is guilty by courtroom standards or he gets the job. No, of course not. He doesn't get the job if we say he doesn't get the job. If we don't believe him and we decide Blasey Ford is believable, that's more than enough to toss Kavanaugh.
